Huayu for engineering students

Chapter 189 Meaning
"So far, we have officially announced that we have discovered the world's first material with a two-dimensional structure. This achievement has been published by the world's "Science" magazine and has become the cover paper of this issue." Wang Xu is serious in the position of the keynote speaker He was preaching, and the last thing to show was the "Science" magazine that published the paper.

This manuscript has been written a long time ago, introducing the process and principle of graphene discovery.After that, it has been polished in many ways, not only in the department, but also in the department, in order to make it as easy to understand as possible and suitable for all ages.

But looking at the confused reporters from all walks of life in the audience, Wang Xu still felt a little dizzy.The scientific literacy of this era, how should I put it, why everyone is playing with literature and art, it is because science cannot understand.

It's as if every time the college entrance exam papers are released on the Internet in later generations, the Chinese exam papers are the most popular. Without him, the others will not.

Graphene is simple enough from structure to discovery principle, but even such a simple scientific content, there are still countless people who can't understand it at all, after all, it involves content at the atomic level.

Wang Xu still remembers that in his previous life, when an uncle in the next-door alley exploded the first large-scale killer in China, he published an article on the principle of atomic bomb explosion in Science Tabloid.Then the tabloid was shut down for three months for rectification, and the uncle was almost caught as a spy.

Although decades have passed in time, people have learned about machines, electric lights, telegraphs, trains, and automobiles in these decades. This is already the result of universal literacy and universal education.

However, this kind of education has not yet spread to deeper areas, and literacy is still one of the important tasks at the grassroots level.

Nine-year compulsory education was officially implemented a few years ago, but it can be implemented in cities at most. In the 90s, there were not many children in rural areas who could continue to go to school.Like Tang Yun, there are not many children who drop out of junior high school.

Therefore, as long as something involves the curriculum after junior high school, it is something that only a few elites can understand in society.For example, graphene.

The flash flashed for a while, and Wang Xu felt a little dazzled.But he still maintained a good self-cultivation, smiling and holding a copy of "Science" magazine, accepting photos from various media, and then under the reporter's gesture, he raised "Science" to shoulder height, and a picture with Magazine photo.

Then the main participants of the project were introduced, and they also took a group photo with "Science" magazine, and then took their seats.Hearing that Mr. Yan had announced the start of the questioning session, Wang Xu continued to sit upright with a serious face. After the initial excitement passed, now he felt a little bored.

"Is this achievement independently completed by Chinese scientists? Is there any international scholars or international funding involved?"

The first person to ask questions was the Xinxia Society. This was a rule. This was the authoritative organization that really released information in China at that time. Their manuscripts would appear in the most important newspapers and magazines with the national prefix.

Xinxia News Agency, Tass News Agency, Ugly Associated Press, Agence France-Presse, and Reuters, these are the few institutions that young people who like to read newspapers know best.In the Internet age of later generations, people have forgotten the prestige of these authoritative news agencies, but Wang Xu misses them very much.

After all, the things from these news agencies are basically reliable. Although the opinions may be biased, most of the things are still true. Looking at several companies together, the general story of the matter can still be seen.

"Yes, this project was proposed by Wang Xu, an excellent undergraduate student in the Department of Automation.

Under the guidance of the professors of the Department of Automation and the Department of Materials, it was verified by Professor Duan and his doctoral student Zhang Hongyu using the equipment of the Condensed Matter Laboratory of the Department of Materials.

From the beginning to the end, it was completed by teachers and students of our school, and the funds were provided by the two departments. There was no participation of any international funds and no international cooperation. "

It was the vice-principal who answered the question. With a red face, he took the initiative to take the microphone and gave the most affirmative answer sonorously.In fact, Wang Xu had already discussed it with the department and the school.

The funding for this research is considered to be from the Department of Automation and the Department of Materials. After all, I have already eaten the biggest cake. The project initiator and the first author of the paper are Wang Xu.

There is no corresponding author, Professor Duan is the second author, and Brother Liu is the third author.It is almost free to pick up the second and third authors of "Science", and these two have no opinion.

What else can Wang Xu do, he must save some face for the department, right?There is no patent for this thing, so there is nothing wrong with leaving some reputation to the department.The reputation in the department has improved, so I will be able to fool the new student, Leek, in the future.

"I'm a reporter from Huaxia TV. May I ask what level this achievement is in the world?" A very handsome young reporter stood up and asked a question. His eyes were familiar. Isn't this Shui Junyi?

He was the one who came. Last year, this old man went to the Gulf region for interviews, and he appeared on TV a lot. It can be said that he became famous and he could be called the first brother of the reporter. I didn't expect him to be sent here.

"This is a groundbreaking achievement, which can be said to open the door to a new field,

Contributed a new system of materials to the world, and also provided a new sample for condensed matter physics.

This achievement can be said to be the world's top discovery, and it is one of the most important discoveries in the world in recent decades. "

Professor Bian took the microphone and also gave a very positive answer.In fact, the Department of Materials originally thought that an academician should be brought in to answer questions like this evaluation.

But after careful consideration, I decided to forget it. Everyone in the material department knows how important this thing is, and it’s okay for anyone to say it.If other people really don't accept this kind of evaluation, it's still the same when the academician comes, so it's better to save some hole cards and fight with each other later.

"I'm a reporter from Science and Technology Daily, may I ask..."

A few questions in a row were all newspapers with national prefixes, and the questions asked were quite satisfactory. Basically, they were communicated in advance, and Wang Xu didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, the professors were bragging.

At this time, a thin reporter raised his hand and was targeted by the host, Professor Yan. The man stood up and said sincerely:

"I'm a reporter from Southern Weekly. Just now, Professor Duan introduced that this research has cost millions of dollars, and the result is only one paper.

It will take many years of research to be practical, and even more huge funds will be spent in the meantime.

We must know that there are still one billion people living in dire straits, even without clothing and food.

May I ask what is the significance of such research results that waste money and people to improve the quality of life of our people?
Why not use such funds to conduct some research that is more related to people's livelihood? "

Listening to this familiar question, Wang Xu sniffed, why did there come a strong smell of scum.
